Training-induced improvements in postural control are accompanied by alterations in cerebellar white matter in brain injured patients

We investigated whether balance control in young TBI patients can be promoted by an 8-week balance training program and whether this is associated with neuroplastic alterations in brain structure. The cerebellum and cerebellar peduncles were selected as regions of interest because of their importan...
